What the Word Christmas Means and Where it Came From


The Word Christmas has been explained as the marriage of Paganism to Christianity. The word Christmas consists of "Christ" and "Mass".

In short the word "Christmas" is exclusively a Roman Catholic Word. Click the Christmas Link here for a more indepth look at Where the Word Christmas came from.
